I’m here to talk about this sparkly little eyeshadow.

I thought a Quickie would suffice for this eyeshadow. There’s nothing extraordinary to note.
It comes housed in a clear plastic compact, which I actually quite like. It’s clear so you can see what’s inside if you end up owning multiple shades of it.
Now, it doesn’t really have that strong of a coloured base, but that’s not the point here. We’re here for the glitter. The glitter flecks are as pretty and eye-catching as you’d expect.
However, through multiple wear-tests and the like, I found that it isn’t very long-wearing . They will last better if you have on some eyeshadow primer or a creamy eyeshadow stick as a base. The glitter will tack on better and pop more.
On their own, they are sheer and perform well as toppers. You can build up the intensity of the glitter by layering more on, too.
It’s a pretty product but the price is a little too steep for the local market. If you get it on sale or on one of those ‘Buy One Get One Free’ offers that the brand has every once in a while, I think you’re good. Do not pay full price for these.
Will I be getting more of these? No, I don’t think so. Unless, of course, they come out with a spectacular mint shade.
I was going to compare this to my beloved Addiction single eyeshadow but it just doesn’t compare because of how much better the Addiction one is. I could compare it to the Bobbi Brown glitter eyeshadow singles that they used to make but I also think it’s useless because they’ve been discontinued. I understand these are supposed to be dupes of the Urban Decay eyeshadow singles, but I just think the Urban Decay ones are cult classics for a reason. These are dupes, certainly, but if you expect them to perform as amazingly as the Urban Decay ones, you will be disappointed.
They’re fine. They’re fine. Again, like I said, just get them on sale.
The shade I got, “Pop Off Pink”, has red, pink, magenta and white glitter flecks.
∴ They are pretty as eyeshadow toppers. Don’t expect much of them and only get them when/if they’re discounted.
PRICE: $6 USD (retails for 700 INR locally).
QUANTITY: 2 grams
AVAILABILITY: e.l.f. Global, Nykaa etc.
